engine and drivetrain Shop Photo.

(the rare share...)

 

Photo of what's in the hobby shop (the term 'hobby' used loosely). A throaty 11:1 C/R engine ready to load into a race car, an almost-stock M10 on the nearly-completed M10 test stand. Colorado car is a rebuild/resto in progress. Next week a new race car build project comes back from paint, will be thrashing for 5 weeks to have it ready for the first race. Fun stuff. -KB

seriously jealous!

[OriginalOwner]

 for us SoCal'ers that is total tease:  what is the address so us local folks can drift over and drool over everything and drag our chins along the floor and commit other such wanton acts of jealousy and possessive covetness ??

 

Cheers,

 

Carl

The shop floor isn't all-that clean, Carl (chuckle).

 

Actually, it's not a retail shop nor are there regular hours (I'm looking into setting it up as an owner's 'club'). Folks come by appointment or if in contact while I'm there, feel free to contact me via PM for more on that. (Perhaps I'll have an open house as the two projects get a little further along...) -KB

Looks good Ken, an open house is always a good idea

[ndog]

Shop looks great as usual, Ken. As far as I'm concerned it's 2002 Mecca.

A shop project which stalled for a while, just got back to it. It's an M10 engine run stand for testing / break-in / heat cycling. Electric fan up front for additional cooling, will be adding fuel pump and lines for race engines and the occasional Tii engine linkage set-up. Some detail and finish work remains, and need to find a better tach (and, perhaps, not so large...).

 

That-there engine has an original single-barrel solex (per customer) over a semi-strong build; seems to have tons of bottom end. -KB
